Configuring the Printer

USB is a plug-and-play environment. As such, neither the printer nor the host
requires user configuration to work. However, since the NCR solution simulates a
serial communication interface, you must configure "handshaking" on the printer for
proper operation. The printer can be configured to use hardware flow control (using
DTR/DSR) or software flow control (using XON/XOFF). All other serial
communication parameters (i.e., baud rate, parity, stop bits, and data bits) are
ignored.
To define software or hardware handshaking:
1. Open the Receipt Cover and check whether there is paper in the printer. If there
isn't, insert the paper roll, as described in the Owner's Manual.
2. Turn the printer so the back is facing you.
3. Set DIP switch 1 to the On position (up).
